Phospholipids
The main type of lipids that make up the bilayer of the cell membrane are phospholipids. These phospholipids have a hydrophilic (water-loving) head and hydrophobic (water-fearing) tails, which allows them to arrange in a bilayer with the hydrophilic heads facing the aqueous environment both inside and outside the cell, while the hydrophobic tails face each other in the middle. Other lipids, such as cholesterol, can also be present in the cell membrane, helping to maintain its fluidity and stability.
The most common type of cell membrane is a phospholipid.
I believe you are referring to phospholipids. They form a bilayer around the plasma membrane of the cell to keep the cellular contents in and selectively allow things to come in and out of the cell.
The plasma membrane is the limiting membrane of a cell. It is called Phospholipid Bilayer because it consists of proteins and lipids.
Phospholipids are lipids that are essential to cells because they make up cell membranes. When phospholipids are added to water, they self-assemble into double-layered aggregates, or bilayers, that shield their hydrophobic portions from water. The phospholipid bilayer forms a boundary between the cell and its external environment.
The framework of the cell membrane is formed by the lipid bilayer. The lipid bilayer is composed of two layers of fat cells organized in two sheets. This is what provides the barrier that makes the boundaries of the cell.

Well i think what you are asking is what forms the thin membrane of a cell. and that is a Phospholipid bilayer where the outside surfaces of the bilayer are hydorphilic (heads) and the inside of the bilayer is hydrophobic (tails).

Lipids do not have a role in controlling the functions of genes. In a cell, the most notable function of lipids is in the lipid bilayer/cell membrane.
